Bulletin Board Construction Set is released

Bulletin Board Construction Set (BBCS) was first announced/reviewed in the August 1985 issue of Antic (Volume 4 Number 4 page 41). Antic also announced in this issue that it would sell BBCS through its Antic Arcade catalog. BBCS is a BBS program written in 100% machine language by Scott Brause of the Jersey Atari Computer Group. BBCS allowed the SysOp to customize the BBS through easy to use menus. Before BBCS, most BBS programs could only be customized by modifying their source code (most BBSs were written in BASIC at the time).  See also the BBCS entry in the BBS Documentary archive.
